21 Moving Ou (2/2)
With a quick dash, I stopped momentarily into the front of the three TangleWeed and waved the blazing magic sword twice horizontally before making a backflip to move away.

The three TangleWeeds burned and almost shriveled. The first one almost died but it tried to counterattack. Of course it missed after I backflipped. Before the TangleWeed can once again summon another TangleWeed, I dashed forward again. Since I was near, the dash is just too short, allowing me to give a forced horizontal swing to the three figures.
-TangleWeed successfully killed.
-Got Dried Vine x5
-Got Dried Leaves x3
-Got 4000 EXP(Title Effects Activated, 4000 bonus acquired)

The notifications appeared one by one and gave me a good amount of Exp. The cart continued to move forward after the killing the TangleWeeds. This time, Lina did not returned to the cart and instead, move alongside the cart.
The monsters seems wary about me and the cart, therefore, when the cart reached around the place where the monsters are hiding, some would immediately hide away. Some just stayed and stares at us with curious eyes. Of course, if those monsters don't attack, there is no reason to attack them. I don't seek death and the quest did not say to kill monsters, it merely states to defend the cart. If I did try to attack the monsters only watching, I am just courting trouble.
”Umm, Bladeheart isn't it?” Lina moved on my side.
”Yeah, what is it?” I looked at her but still have the alertness heightened in case of attacks.
”Why you didn't kill those monsters on the side of the road? Aren't you a player?” Lina asked.
”Huh? Why would I kill them? They are not attacking the cart, why would I do that?” I looked at Lina with confusion.
”Ah? Aren't players greedy on killing monsters? You all goes to length to challenge monsters to earn money and EXP.”
I scratched my head in confusion. So that is what NPCs view us huh?
”Nope, I am not one of those guys. If those monsters are not hostile, I won't be killing any of them. But if they tried attacking like those TangleWeeds earlier, I won't hesitate to attack.”
Lina showed a surprised expression but her gaze diverted to the front.
”Enemies!”
I looked and frowned seeing human enemies. In exact way, these are bandits. They are common NPCs that are hostile to players and NPCs. Killing them do not impose with penalty in killing NPCs. But unlike monsters, bandits can be reasoned out and they can be befriended. But in this case, I don't like the look of these guys, if I want to befriend a bandit, I would befriend someone who are much less thug looking. I didn't bother looking at their levels. Just by looking at these lanky bandits, they are around level 9 to 10 but they are weak.
”Hand over your goods and the women!” the lanky bandit in the middle demanded.

I squinted my eyes but still remained unmoved. Lina was ready to attack but she was anxiously looking at me on why I did not attack.
”Really? You think I will obediently hand them over to you all lot?” I grinned at them.
”You sure are cocky brat. You think I am afraid of you newbie? We had ransacked caravans and different carts passing so why would be afraid of a mere adventurer and a sexy maid?” the other thief licked his lips.
”Bah, why waste my breath with you lot, just go scram,” I said and stab the ground with my Versatile Weapon in Magic Sword form.
”Earth Fissure!”
